Well today’s salmon sheet pan dinner is pretty similar, except with completely different flavors. And ingredients. OK so it’s not all that similar. I went Mediterranean with this one, using balsamic vinegar, plenty of garlic, and fennel.

I feel like fennel is an under-utilized ingredient. It’s so good fresh (like this Fennel & Pomegranate Quinoa Salad), and it’s SO good roasted! It gets a completely different flavor profile when it roasts, going from fresh, crunchy, anisey to tender, slightly sweet, and far less anise/licorice flavor.

Happy birthday to Kai! He’s at the perfect age for birthday celebrations. I hope he has a blast tomorrow! And yay for salmon sheet pan dinners! This looks SO good, Denise! It’s been forever since I’ve made a sheet pan meal, so I’m adding this to my list!

Awww…happy birthday to the little man. I’d be pretty excited about having cake with my grandma too, if I was him! :-). I’m totally obsessed with fennel. It’s delicious raw and I could basically just eat an entire bulb like an apple. YUM! I bet it’s great with this salmon!

Aaw Happy Happy Birthday to Kai!! Three is such a fun age! I hope you guys have a great time celebrating and he loves his cake! This salmon looks SO amazing, Denise! Seriously LOVE everything on this pan and yay for fennel!
